[LE] How to issue console commands via papyrus

[irswat]

I am currently pondering how to make my voice command engine compatible with mods in an easy way. In order for the VCE to support 3rd party mods the VCE needs lists of category arrays for the various items. For example:
[Mod Name]
[Command Type: Equip]

[Form Type: Weapons]

[Category Array: Unique Identifiers]

...

...

...

[Category Array: Element Types]

...

...

...

[Command Type: Cast]

[Form Type: Spells]
...
...
...

[end]


here is an example of the Vanilla & DLC category arrays [length warning]:

In order to make a compatibility patch a mod author will simply release a flat text file with the above format. This text file will get dropped into a folder for the VCE.

Here is the tricky part. I want to run a batch file from papyrus that will dump to a text file the contents of this folder. With the names of all the text files in the folder I can then write an import function that will import these category arrays into appropriately named formlists & arrays, and as simple as that the mod will be compatible with the VCE.

Question: I know I can run a batch file through console using the bat, command. How can I issue the bat command to console via papyrus?

Figured it out!

int function ImportModSupport()

	Console("Bat GetModList.bat")

endFunction

then in GetModList.bat

dir *.txt /b /a-d > ModList.txt

Did you ever get this to work in Skyrim LE? I tried it out in Skyrim SE (with SKSE64 or course) and it didn't work. The console did open but nothing was typed in the console. It seemed like having the console open paused the execution of the key taps because if I manually exited the console the taps appeared to resume.

 

Or did you end up using something else like ConsoleUtil to run your batch file?

[jcadley]

I tried this as well, and got the same result in Skyrim SE as did Exergist. It opens the console, and just waits.

 

If I close the console myself, then it starts tapping out my programmed keystrokes again, some of which are just ignored, and some of which happen to be mapped keys - so I get the inventory, the Skyrim map, etc.
